Riding the Pheonix Chapter 56: Injustice

Mingxiang knelt with her until midnight. Although she was very sleepy, she still refused to rest alone.

Mingwei had no choice but to go to the cubicle with her and squint for a while.

In the past two days, she felt cold and angry in her heart, and she wanted to burn the house down.

But Mingsheng and Mingxiang made her heart feel a little warmer.

It can be seen that in this world, good and bad are never complete, and filth and clarity always go together.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, she quietly got up, washed and dressed under Qiu Yu's service, and ate some steamed buns with tea.

Then before Mingxiang woke up, he went out to keep vigil.

The sky is overcast today and the sun has not come out.

There were very few people who came to express condolences. People who were close to me all came, and those who were not close to me didn’t rush to this moment.

Mingwei heard two women talking near the funeral shed.

The voice was neither too loud nor too quiet, just enough for her to hear.

"I heard that the girl from the Zhang family twisted her hair to become a sister-in-law."

"The Zhang family? Is it the Zhang family in Tong County?"

"This is his home!"

"Okay, why does the Zhang family girl want to be a sister-in-law? I heard last month that the Zhang family made an engagement for her!"

"This is what caused the marriage! Alas, she was also ignorant. When her parents left, she was fostered at her uncle's house. When she accidentally discovered that her uncle had used his own money, she actually started yelling and said she was going to sue the authorities. She doesn’t even think about it, is it free to raise her? As a girl, she is not qualified to share the family property."

"Yes! Her father has no children, so the family property must be distributed to the clan members."

"That's it! My uncle has done his duty in raising her, and he can just marry her off when she gets old. What's more, her uncle still has the final say in her marriage, so how dare she file a lawsuit? This is simply an act of betrayal."

"Isn't it..."

Mingwei raised his eyes: "Qiu Yu."

"My servant is here."

"Go and tell my second aunt that someone is making noise in the mourning hall and disturbing my mother."

"This..." Qiu Yu hesitated.

"What?" Ming slightly raised his chin, and pursed his lips with a cold tone, "Once my mother is gone, I won't even be able to deal with two servants?"

Qiu Yu immediately said: "Miss Seventh, wait a moment, I will ask the madam to punish them right away!"

As she said that, she hurried out.

Mingwei gave a sneer.

She is not stupid, so she naturally knows that this is meant for her.

But why is this?

The Ming family was so powerful that she was an orphan who lost her mother. Logically speaking, she didn't need to pay much attention to her, so why bother using such low-end means to threaten her.

Suddenly there were rapid footsteps outside, and the servants ran to the door one after another, as if there was something important.

Mingwei frowned and heard the steward of the outer courtyard shout: "Move quickly! Wang Jia is coming soon."

Wang Jia? Prince Qidong?

As expected, everyone from the Ming family gathered together, and after a while, Prince Qidong arrived.

Coming with him was Jiang Wenfeng.

Mingwei heard a gentle man's voice: "What are you doing? Madam, get up quickly! You are an elder, how can I bear it? Today, my king is here to express condolences, and the deceased should be the most important."

The second master said respectfully: "Your Majesty's presence under the house will make the flowers shine. Please invite Your Majesty to serve tea inside..."

"I said that I am here to express my condolences, so I naturally have to go to the mourning hall. Mr. Jiang, do you think so?"

"The prince said so."

So, a group of people came here cheering.

Prince Qidong took the lead, followed by Jiang Wenfeng, then Magistrate Wu... all the officials from Dongning, big and small, came.

Yang Shu is also among them, but he is squeezed in at the end. Even if he does not want to be in the limelight, people can't help but look at him when he appears.

Mingwei understood. It turned out that the previous conversation between the two maids was because of this.

She sneered inwardly.

This Ming family is really petty, and they can use this method.

"Your Majesty, please come this way."

Prince Qidong is nearly forty years old, and his figure has inherited the height of the Jiang family.

Such a posture, regardless of appearance, is quite majestic.

As soon as he came in, he happened to see Ming Wei looking up in mourning clothes, and was startled.

After two breaths, he came back to his senses and said with a faint smile: "This must be the seventh lady, right? I had a chance encounter with the third lady back then, and now that I meet him, it's like going back in time, which is really touching. Endless."

Everyone suddenly understood and nodded.

Let’s just say, this young lady from the Ming family is certainly beautiful, but who is the prince? How could you lose your composure?

Mingwei sat there on his knees, bowing his head to salute Prince Qidong, but did not speak.

The second master said hurriedly: "My lord, please forgive me, this child has been a little different from others since he was a child..."

Prince Qidong waved his hand: "Miss Seventh was not rude, why should she apologize?"

So everyone praised the prince for his tolerance and generosity.

Ming Wei listened indifferently, her eyes slightly lowered, not looking at anyone.

Even Mr. Jiang didn't let her raise her eyes, as if she wasn't the one who made such a request to Ah Wan earlier.

A-wan dressed up as a servant and followed Yang Shu. Taking advantage of the crowd, she quietly said to him: "Isn't she going to change her mind? This would be a good idea to avoid being the target of public criticism in the future."

After thinking for a while, he added: "It's not good either. This will cause the young master to be in trouble."

Yang Shu laughed and said, "You should make up your mind first. Don't do this one moment and that other moment."

Actually, he was also curious about whether Mingwei would do it.

Jiang Wenfeng thought she was avenging her mother, but Yang Shu knew that she and Mrs. Mingsan were not the real mother and daughter. Is the relationship between mother and daughter for just over a month worth getting her into such a big trouble?

Xuanshi has many more abilities than ordinary women, but after all, she is still in the world of mortals. She did this ~IndoMTL.com~ There will be many hidden dangers in the future.

Then comes the incense.

Starting from the county king, come one by one.

Mingwei looked indifferent and thanked him only once.

The second master kept staring at her.

When everyone finished lighting the incense and saw that she didn't move, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt quite proud. The little girl was a little girl after all, and she would become honest after being scared.

"Your Majesty, please."

Just as he was about to lead everyone out, Mingwei suddenly raised his head.

"Wait!"

The clear girl's voice, with a slight hoarseness, echoed in the mourning hall.

She looked at Jiang Wenfeng and said word by word very clearly: "Master Jiang, please stay."

Coming.

Yang Shu sighed in his heart, unable to tell whether it was joy or pity.

After all, I made this choice.

Although the friendship was shown, it also caused a lot of trouble in the future.

The second master's heart sank, and he immediately turned back and scolded: "Xiao Qi! Adults take time out of their busy schedules to come here, please don't be rude."

She raised the corner of her mouth with a hint of ridicule, and ignored the second master's reply. She only looked at Jiang Wenfeng: "I heard that your Excellency has posted a notice. Regardless of men, women, old or young, scholars, farmers, or businessmen, if they come to you to complain about injustice, you will accept it. Yes. Not too?"

"Xiao Qi!" The second master was furious.

Is she stupid? You've been scared like that just now, so you're not afraid of being like the girl from the Zhang family who has no place to live?

Jiang Wenfeng is also waiting.

He actually didn't want this Ming girl to report it in person. However, he has also made preparations. If she really dares to do this, then he will make every effort to restore her reputation.

Now she spoke.

Come on then.

He will do his best to be worthy of the little girl's courage.

"Yes."

Mingwei bowed down to him and saluted: "My little girl has been wronged, please seek justice!"
